Users now have the ability to designate alerts based on an exact increase in spend over a period of time. For some time now Ternary has employed AI/ML to identify anomalous changes in cost that could then be further filtered by users to meet specific thresholds. This technology enables users to “automagically” take things like trends and seasonality into account, but we also realize that users/organizations, for several reasons, may want to alert on thresholds without the lens of AI/ML. Now, when creating alerting rules, users have the ability to bypass AI/ML anomaly detection.
